With Earth Day being tomorrow, I challenge you to reflect on your habits routines and make at least one simple change. The choices are unlimited. However, just one simple adjustment in your routine will make a difference for you and possibly open the door to other "greener" options.
Listed below are 20 suggestions, some simple and others a little more challenging and time consuming. However, just try to make one change...it may lead to more.
Start a compost pile.
Make your own cleaning products or purchase earth friendly ones.
Swap out some OTC medications for herbal remedies.
Find a green shampoo/conditioner/body wash.
Purchase more organic products.
Plant something-flowers, garden, tree...
Join a co-op for fresh local produce or meats.
Take shorter showers.
Turn off the lights and open up the windows.
Take a bicycle, walk or carpool when possible.
Bring your own grocery bags when shopping.
Pick up trash in your neighborhood or at a local park.
Make nature crafts such as bird feeders or bird houses.
Use BPA-free reusable water bottles.
Get off junk mail lists. GreenDimes can get you started. They'll even plant a tree for you!
Landscape with native plants. Check out the article on the EPA website.
Switch to fair trade coffee.
Do full loads of laundry and set the rinse cycle to "cold."
Teach your kids about the environment.
Buy in season.
Many of these things I do or they are on my list for this years changes. If you need more information on any of these things or a specific how to, feel free to ask.
